Chapter 300: Standardization + The Power of the Gun Table

The captain of the Texel and the captains of the Dutch fleet were also frightened, shooting at the enemy's ships from a distance of three thousand yards.

None of the troubadour's poems dared to boast about it.

The captains of the Dutch fleet soon laughed at themselves, they must have gone mad, believing that they could hit an enemy ship at a distance of three thousand yards, and they must have been favored by God.

After testing the elevation angle, Zhu Zhongyi looked at the cement stove next to him, where coal was placed and cannonballs were burning violently.

These shells are all special incendiary shells made by the Daming Arms Company, solid shells mixed with lead and iron.

The melting point of iron is 1538 degrees Wens, and it takes a long time to burn the iron ball into a fiery red color, and it is not practical in a naval battle that is fought day and night.

The melting point of lead is much lower, only 327 degrees Wensiol, and it can quickly burn to a fiery red.

However, the hardness of lead is too low, and the Daming Arms Company has tried again and again, and finally created a lead-iron incendiary bomb that can quickly burn red and has enough hardness.

The lead-iron incendiary bomb had already burned red, and Zhu Zhongyi immediately ordered: "Load the incendiary bomb, the elevation angle is 3 miles." ”

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

This time it was a salvo of ten guns, and three lead-iron incendiary bombs overtook the Galen ship, one on the left and one in front, smashing out a wave of skyrocketing.

The remaining five lead-iron incendiary bombs all hit the Tesel Galen, instantly smashing large holes in the deck and side of the ship, and one of them hit the mainsail.

In order to prevent weathering, the sails of the Galen ship are generally soaked in grease, and when they encounter a fiery red lead-iron incendiary bomb, the mainsail 'poof' burst into flames.

Before the captain of the Tesel and the captains of the Dutch fleet could react, the mainsail had turned into a huge flame.

"Fight the fire! Hurry up and put out the fire! ”

"There is also a fire on the first floor of the gun deck, hurry up and put out the fire!"

"There is also a fire on the side side!"

The sailors on the deck of the Tessell quickly panicked, some of them ran to put out the fire, and many more jumped directly into the sea, and while the Tesel had not sunk and caused a whirlpool, they hurried to flee to other Galen ships.

Many of the captains of the Dutch fleet were stunned, staring at the Tessel burning on the sea level.

Is this still a vulnerable Ming Dynasty sailor?

Or is it the backward country that with five Galen ships, it can sink thirty large warships of the Ming Dynasty?

Ten shells were fired at a distance of three hundred yards, and up to two could be hit.

The backward Ming Dynasty was able to hit five out of ten shells at a distance of three thousand yards!

The captains of the Dutch fleet, who were crisscrossing the five oceans, even began to wonder if they had drunk too much rum and fell asleep, and everything in front of them was a dream.

The captains of the Dutch fleet were far apart on their respective Galen ships, but they were all muttering that it was impossible, that they must have drunk too much.

Soon the captains of the Dutch fleet understood that they were not dreaming, and it was not long before another wave of shells hit the Tessel at a distance of three thousand yards.

Due to the excessive impact of the first wave of ten guns, the hull shook and the stability was reduced, and only three fiery red shells hit the Tessel.

These three shells alone made the captains of the Dutch fleet understand one thing, not God's favor, let alone luck.

The commander of the main ship of the Ming Dynasty could really accomplish an impossible feat.

Hit an enemy ship at a distance of three thousand yards!

After four waves of shells, Zhu Zhongyi ordered the gunners to give up cooling down and continue to fire at the risk of exploding.

Ten Hongyi cannons fired a fifth wave of shells, but unfortunately only one shell hit the Tessel.

This shell hit the burning mainmast, and the huge mainmast, which could no longer hold up, smashed into the deck.

The deck was full of panicked Dutch sailors, crushing more than two dozen Dutchmen in an instant, and it happened that the captain of the Tessel was standing in the bow.

The legendary captain of the Tessel, who once sank nine large warships of the Ming Dynasty in the Battle of Liaoluo Bay, died under the powerful power of standardization and cannon watches.

Died at the hands of a backward country that he often talked about.

Liang Zhaoyang, Cao Rulin and all the other Ming generals looked at the scene of the sea level in the distance.

A powerful Galen ship, before it could get within three miles, was bombed into a violently burning wreck.

The prince of Fuwang held the bronze clairvoyant mirror, and his blood was boiling and he almost jumped up, laughing and said: "It is really the Yan Liangwen and ugliness of this prince." ”

Thinking that the Galen ship, which could completely deal with five Ming warships, burned down like this, Yan Liangwen and ugliness were not enough to praise Zhu Zhongyi.

The prince of Fu Wang said a sentence that was extremely arrogant, but it made every general feel very reasonable.

"General, what a man of God is!"

Zhu Zhongyi clearly knew that destroying the Galen ship at the front of the Dutch fleet would definitely bring a great shock to the Dutch, and hurriedly ordered the gunners to take advantage of this time to start cooling the Hongyi cannon.

After cooling, the second Dutch Galen ship was first test-fired, and the distance was kept narrowed to find the launch position of Sanli.

After firing five shells in succession, a suitable fire control position was found, and all of them were replaced with fiery red lead-iron incendiary shells, and forty or fifty shells were dumped in waves.

Most of the lead-iron incendiary bombs missed, smashing on the sea level, stirring up huge waves.

Only about twenty lead-iron incendiary bombs hit the Dutch Galen, and there was again one more violently burning Dutch Galen ship on the sea level.

Cooled down again, and for the third time a group fired lead-iron incendiary bombs.

Wrecked the third Dutch Galen ship!

Zhu Zhongyi not only had a cannon watch in his hand, but also a copy of Taizu's Art of War given by his nephew Zhu Shun, knowing the importance of psychological warfare, he immediately ordered: "Give the order to the water braves, Yang Fan pursues." ”

A fortune ship pursues seventeen Dutch Galen ships across the five oceans?

It's a bit too fantastical.

But this Arabian Nights scene just happened.

The captains of the Dutch fleet had long been frightened, and if they dared to stay here longer, they would be sent to death.

"Sail! Sail! Retreat now! ”

"Oh God! Get away from this devil! ”

"The devil is coming, hurry up and set sail!"

When did the prince of King Fu fight such a hearty naval battle, and the sailors of all countries, including the Ming Dynasty, were not chased everywhere by a few Dutch Galen ships.

Today, the Da Ming Fu ship is chasing seventeen Dutch Galen ships and scurrying around.

Only one Damingfu ship is used.

A layer of goosebumps rose all over his body, and he howled loudly regardless of his demeanor, and personally went over to take the helm and pursue the seventeen Dutch Galen ships.

Not to mention the belligerent Liang Zhaoyang, his scalp was numb, and he was eager to jump on the deck of the Dutch Galen ship to have a hand-to-hand fight.

couldn't jump on the deck of the Dutch Galen ship, but went to the first layer of gun deck, and found Zhu Zhongyi, a farmer from the countryside, who was commanding the gunners, and bowed solemnly: "Liang has offended a lot, and I ask Brother Zhu to forgive me." ”

Zhu Zhongyi, who was silent, did not speak, but just helped Liang Zhaoyang up.

Liang Zhaoyang thought that Zhu Zhongyi had not forgiven him, and was about to leave in disappointment, but when he turned around, he suddenly heard a sentence.

"General Liang, do you want to make a shot?"
